Bandar seri begawan: Doa or supplication is the most powerful weapon and source of strength for a mukmin in facing both happy and sad times. It is a place to pour out feelings and to ask for help from Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala. The matter was among those touched upon in the Friday Sermon titled "Supplication: The Sincere Language of the Soul".

According to Radio Television Brunei, the prayer leader said that Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala answers every prayer in the most wise way. Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala's answers come in various forms, including: granted as requested, namely at the time determined by Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala, according to the needs of his servants. Prayers may also be postponed to a better time, allowing the servant to learn patience and to appreciate the blessings of Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala more. In some cases, prayers might be replaced with something better, either as a reward in the hereafter or used as a deterrent by keeping away from evil by Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala.
